Hi! Would anyone by chance happen to have a storage container that I could borrow for the next 2 days? It can be small medium or large. I’m transporting some things (like pots/pans/ dishes) and need something that is enclosed to help transport them. Thanks in advance! 😊

Hi All. Relatively new in town. Does anyone here do hair braiding (cornrows) or know someone in the area who works with natural hair (4b/4c)?

H
Resident

Hi Jayla! I know how to braid. I’ve been doing braids on myself and a few friends here and there for a little over ten years. I’ve done different styles (knotless braids, soft locs, goddess braids, springy twists, cornrows). I like to do hair from time to time, so I might be able to help out as you look for someone! I have pictures of some styles as well. Just lmk 😊
